Don't forget Low BP! Also, make sure you EAT! Because low blood sugar can actually increase these symptoms and hurry them along. Also, cut the gatorade or powerade with water because the higher sugar content can actually dehydrate you faster.

I didn't put BP because the symptoms of that are dizziness, faintness, etc. Most people don't know how to check their BP, but they can recognize signs of low BP when they occur.

I know they make sugar-free versions of gatorade now for that very reason, I'm just not sure what they're called. XD
